Currently, If you want write/read binary from a stream you are using
TextIOWrapper with you must keep the TextIOWrapper alive otherwise, it will
close the underlying buffer. I think we should provide a disconnect() method for
BufferedIOBase and TextIOBase that removes from the wrapper and returns raw
stream or buffer respectively.
